TIP: When adhering, keep card in a fairly closed position, keep middle folds close together, then close the card and press.
TO MAKE THE POP-UP STRIP
1. Lay inside layer of the card with “mountain side” of score
line facing up on the paper cutter and perpendicular to the ruler.
2. Find the center of the piece of card stock. For this card, the center is 2 5/8” in
on either side.
3. Shift the cardstock to the right half the distance of what
you want the width of your strip to be.
For this card it will be the strip will be 3/8 wide. Therefore shift your card 3/16” to the
left and cut, then return card to center.
Then shift the card 3/16” to the right and cut again. Make each cut 2 ¼” long so start the
cut 1 1/8” above center and end 1 1/8” below the center fold.
